US Congress report says China 'systematically' denied access to Tibet

Washington's efforts to pressurize China into opening up the tightly guarded region have not succeeded as a new US Congress report assessment indicated that foreign diplomats, journalists and tourists were "systematically" denied access to China's Tibet autonomous region over the past year.

The dire assessment comes despite attempts by Washington to force Beijing to relax the limits it has long imposed on Tibet.
